Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar - also known to historians as El Cid - was an eleventh century Spanish military commander who led both Christians and Moors into battle. In the pages of Eerie magazine, however, writer Budd Lewis and artist Gonzalo Mayo transform El Cid into a larger-than-life fantasy warrior, battling dragons, trolls, and sirens for his life-and demons for his soul!
This deluxe hardcover collects every El Cid adventure that ran in Warren Publishing's Eerie magazine in the mid-1970s, featuring the elaborately detailed artwork of Mayo, plus Eerie's original historical background feature.
Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 96 pages, B&W.

Written by Gary Reed. Art and cover by Wayne Reid.
El Cid: The Conqueror tells the story of the later life of one of history's greatest warriors, El Cid. As Spain was undergoing ceaseless warfare from the Islamic invasion sweeping into the Christian land, small kingdoms were carved out of the Iberian peninsula. The Cid was instrumental in the quest to unify Spain under one ruler. Banished by his own King, El Cid continued to bring victories in the name of his Lord and would fight with and against both Christian and Muslim.
Softcover, 66 pages, full color. Cover price $9.99.
